Summer Nature Camp Week 7
July 24 – July 28
Theme: Nature’s Art
In addition to our classic nature camp activities this week, campers test their creativity using Mother Nature’s available resources. The possibilities are endless and the supplies are all around us. We explore our nature center habitats, collect what the Earth has to offer and challenge our inner artist.

Classic Camps
Join us at the Nature Center for a week of outdoor fun! Each morning we’ll start off with free play as campers arrive and check in. Throughout the day, campers will hike, have live animal encounters, and participate in games and activities that relate to the theme of the week. Please provide a morning snack, non-perishable lunch, water bottle and change of clothes. Sturdy shoes that can get wet and muddy are essential at camp! No Crocs or flip flops, please.
